"We acknowledge and affirm the kinship and interdependence of human and animal, and adopt
ethics of interspecies compassion as an integral component of liberal religion."

Reverence for Life”
Sermon delivered on November 8, 2008
First Unitarian Universalist Society of Burlington
Rev. Gary Kowalski

There are some figures who belong not to any one country or culture but to the world at large. Some are mystics and prophets like Francis and Gandhi, some are musicians like Bach and painters like Picasso, others scientists like Jane Goodall, still others outstanding for their altruism. They seem to transcend their particular time and place and in their differing ways show us glimpses of the good, the true and the beautiful. And it would be rare indeed to find one individual who combined every form of genius—at once spiritual and scientific, both an artist and a humanitarian. Yet one man, Albert Schweitzer, fit that description.

The seventh principle of Unitarian Universalism calls us to "respect the interdependent web of existence of which we are a part." We of UFETA understand that we human beings are only a single strand in the intricate web of life. Like wolves and whales and hummingbirds, we are fragile and perishable, and each species depends on the earth for our survival.

While our Unitarian Universalist principles affirm the "inherent worth and dignity of every human being" and call us to seek "justice, equity & compassion in human relationships," we extend those principles to include other species who also possess an intrinsic value—whose well-being is vital to the whole—and whose rights should parallel our own.
